  1. Nah, I mean you have to as in it's a good idea
  2. With Shannons you have to go see them in person. That's what I did with my car, and I got the agreed value that I wanted. Kat, I actually had them first look at mine at the Wheels event, all I did was wander over to the Shannons sponsor tent and started talking to one of the guys there, he just said "take me to it and I'll look at it now",and that's how I got it, so maybe you could try that? That way they get to look at the car when it's shiny clean too
  3. haha, doesn't stop me!
  4. I thought you already had a Z32 AFM?
  5. I hope not stacking it stacking it?
  6. We used to do trivia at Jerra pub every Tuesday, I wouldn't mind starting something like that again.
  7. Having been there myself, all I can say is "never again".
  8. I saw Yes Man too, pretty funny movie
  9. mmm no, you would have seen James (DriftGTS) I'd say...
  10. Ed did go to Autotech, as far as I know he's still there?
  11. I really didn't think I'd posted in here that much to be honest...
  12. No it wasn't. Some aftermarket companies may have done their own special turbo model, in addition to the turbo kits that are around.
  13. I have an R31 with an RB25 Neo. In no way do I claim to know everything, so - to my knowledge... The turbo has a VG30 style exhaust housing and the compressor wheel is made of a nylon composite material, making it more fragile. Most people say that 10psi is the safe limit. The R34 internals are probably a little stronger overall then the R33. They are known to have GT-R RB26 style conrods (mine did when it was pulled apart) which are good for the power level you want. Also has GT-R style shim & bucket solid lifters instead of hydraulics. The stock ECU has an overboost protection which I think comes in at 12 or 14psi(?), I think it basically richens the hell out of the mixture and retards the timing all the way. Aftermarket ECU I'm not sure, because I don't know if the R34 motors have the same issue with R33 RB25s where they break piston ringlands. I guess if you're not worried about rebuilding it then wind the boost up and tell us how much psi you had in it when something breaks 215rwkw? Don't really know for sure. They're smaller than R33 injectors (R34 are 340cc vs R33 370cc or something like that) Nismo 440cc? Apexi PowerFC is very popular, also the new Vipec range. RB20 gearboxes are very similar to series 3 R31 RB30 boxes. With the power you want you'd be better off with an R33 or R34 gearbox. If you did that you'd have to get a custom tailshaft made. Mine is a single piece using a Z32 300ZX twin turbo gearbox yoke and bigger universal joints. Australian R31 diffs are pretty weak. I drove on mine for about a year with the Neo and the gears inside the diff centre pretty much collapsed. Had that rebuilt to stock Silhouette LSD specs with a Pintara 4.11 crownwheel & pinion and now 2 years later it's groaning and whining like it's the original diff. I don't drift the car, do burnouts or drive like an idiot, it's just weak. The fix is a Kaaz LSD centre. $1500 last time I heard. Have fun trying to break it after that I suppose if you drive like an idiot then fairly quickly you'll have to replace the diff, then either the gearbox or the universal joints. Have no experience with KKRs. You get what you pay for I guess?
  14. hr31gtsnt - bring either 31 out on a cruise sometime, so I don't look so out of place haha (seriously, come say hi )
  15. Indeed it was
  16. Bullet32/Mick's in the process of getting his car going with a GT3076R. It might be a few weeks away though.
  17. I will be there but not with my car, going with my uncle in his '55 F100.
  18. Spotto'd Gus (I think) in Jerrabomberra today, and a Bayside blue R34 GT-t on Erindale Drive this arvo, and spotted Rumble in Braddon tonight, as well as a few other R33s and 2 R34 GT-R in braddon as well.
  19. Bayside blue R34 GT-t in Erindale last night, watched him give it a bit of right foot as he left the shops
  20. Merry Christmas kiddies!
